DWU Student Tuition Fees increase for 2027

Divine Word University wishes to inform students, parents, guardians, sponsors, alumni, and the wider community that, following extensive consultation and a comprehensive review of its financial position, a modest adjustment to tuition and associated course fees will take effect from 1^st of January 2027. This fee adjustments and increase applies to all FULLTIME Programs across all campuses; Madang, Rabaul, Wewak and Port Moresby.

The University fully recognizes the current economic challenges currently facing all citizens including increased expenses, and broader economic uncertainties. We understand that any increase in educational costs places additional pressure on students and their sponsors, and we are deeply mindful of this reality.

The University has worked diligently to absorb increasing operational costs while limiting the financial burden on students. Through cost effective management systems, operational efficiencies and stringent financial management, the University has maintained affordable access to higher education without compromising the quality of teaching, learning, student boarding and lodging services and maintaining support on all student activities since the last review in 2015.

It is imperative that the university takes measures to steadily increase fees to ensure that the University can operate efficiently and continue to provide all students with a conducive learning environment and maintain our commitment to providing excellent education programs.

The University remains committed to its mission of providing quality higher education to all PNG citizens. We appreciate the trust and support of its students, parents, sponsors, and partners. We remain committed to transparency, accountability, and responsible stewardship of resources as we continue to invest in the academic success and future of our students.

Further details regarding the revised fee structure will be communicated through official University channels and will be available from the Student Finance Office.
